Hi daniel

When I see this list I really see that Squeak is moving. I like this 
feeling.
We are going in the right direction. I was especially sad to see the 
simulator
broken, the style of diego is cool and all the rest will make a really 
interesting 3.6.

So we will try to clean faster, but this is easier to say than to do :)
